Happy Whatever...

In the spirit of the holidays that we are celebrating, I would like to comment…

So many people make a big deal out of this time of year, some even take the occasion all the way and celebrate with elaborate shindigs. All the while, nobody ever stops to think about the few who are left out and have no holiday to celebrate. Some of you may know what I’m talking about, while others may be saying what is this idiot speaking of?

I’m talking about February…AKA Black Heritage month. Don’t get me wrong, I think it’s a great thing and often help with the celebrations. My problem lies in the overlooked minorities…

The “white” people get pretty much every day of the year.

“Native Americans” get Thanksgiving…oh, wait that holiday celebrates killing them.

“African Americans” get all of February and a few other days.

Actual “Africans” get Kwanzaa.

“Mexican” people get Cinco de Mayo and Cesar Chavez day as well as a couple others.

“Chinese” folks get their own new year!!!

Religious people REALLY make out with all the holidays they get.

So where are the holidays for all the other groups that get left out? What about the Polish, Italian, Japanese, German, French, Greek, Arab, Persian, Vietnamese, Korean, Russian, Swedish, Armenian, Indian, and all the other neglected races? Do people actually think that giving a few ethnic groups their own holidays will put an end to hundreds of years of racism?

COME ON!!!!!

OK, since it’s never appropriate to point out problem unless you have a solution…here are the options I can see.:

Option 1…Give everyone a holiday.

Option 2…Give nobody a holiday.

Simple, eh?


AND WHAT ABOUT THE DAMN PENGUINS??? WHERE’S THEIR HOLIDAY???
